Beyond: Two Souls developer Quantic Dream has registered a new domain name for what appears to be their first PlayStation 4 title.

Internet super sleuth Superannuation spotted the French studio registering the domain name SingularityPS4.com, which seems to have nothing to do with forthcoming PlayStation 3 title Beyond: Two Souls and… is for the PlayStation 4.

The domain name follows exactly the same formatting as the studio’s last two games: heavyrainps3.com and beyondps3.com. Which on the face of it seems pretty sturdy evidence that Quantic is already working on a next gen game.

Previously Quantic Dream boss David Cage has said that the only major reason why his games are PlayStation 3 exclusives is that they need to use large capacity Blu-ray discs. He’s never ruled out multiformat games though and current rumours suggest the Xbox 720 will have a Blu-ray drive…

However, there’s no sign of a Singularityxbox.com and we’re sure Sony will have taken steps to try and keep the games as exclusive.

The question then is what Singularity is about. The name certainly suggests something sci-fi, with the term singularity referring to, amongst other things, the idea of the emergence of ‘superintellegence’ – either through artificial intelligence, human enhancement, or some combination of both.

This in turn is reminiscent of the tech demo Quantic released before the reveal of Beyond: Two Souls, and which featured a robotic woman apparently gaining sentience.

Before that Quantic Dream were also rumoured to be working on a sci-fi romance named Horizon. Cage later claimed this was a red herring to protect the secret of Beyond: Two Souls.

But again the description sounds like it could well have something to do with both the tech demo and the name Singularity. Especially as a gravitational singularity deals with the event horizon of black holes.
